MAN WHO SNORED.
'KEW SUICIDE'S LETTER TO CORONER.
A strange story was told at the inquest at Richmond on John Cumberbach, who ahot biasalt in Kew Gardens.
He had bona lodging it fiverstone-road, Hammersmith, for a week, but his landlady knew nothing of him, and the coroner said that they had been unable to ind his friends. Ele had investraents amounting to £1,100.
An extraordinary letter addrvenod to the coroner and found on the man body wan rend. On the outside of the envelope were the words :-
Instead of being God's earth, which it in intended to be, this earth is made into the dovil's earth, for people are hell one to another.
The letter itself said that he bought a bouer in Orest Yarmouth in July, 1010, an be had always been in the habit of mak inz soles in his sleep which disturbed ether people, and he thought he should be able to live there peacefully,"
The letter went on to complain that he had been subjected to all kinds of. insults. and expressed a wish that his body should not be dissected. It was signed John
Comberbach "
The coroner said the man had left a lot of papers, all showing ona iden, that be wna being constantly persecated. Ho Bad left a will that Frederick Rathbone, vin- ployed in the catile trade at Salford, should hare the income on his property, and that ou bis death the income should be given annually to the Fresh Air Fund. The. income from the house was to go to the London Hospital.
As there was no date to the will and no signatures, it was neɑless.
A representative of the Yarmouth,agents who held the deeds of the house, said they knew nothing of Combertach, bat formed the impression that he was a retired North Country butcher. He had an itcome of £74. yaar. He had no friends and seemed worried because of his oxaggerated snoring. A vordiet of Suicido during temporsty
